I think that rather than banishing all criticism from non-test-server members, it would be nice if you guys at OOO could just post it as a "this is what the change will be." kind of announcement, like you did in the past with other changes. This is for a number of reasons.

1. People are interested in these changes and issues, and will want to suggest for you to consider any number of things. They might have a good point somewhere.
2. It will allow people to talk about these changes with one another in a civil fashion. If their threads are not civil, stepping in is always an option with any thread.... and you guys probably don't need to read every bit of information.
3. These kinds of changes are not actually very testable, when you think about it. Or maybe they are, but thats the way they come across. Do I REALLY need to play through a level watching my crowns disappear when randoms kill enemies for me when I'm not around, or can I just read what you've written, and, using my past experience, form some vague concept of it?
4. It would be much easier than dealing with the onslaught of angry posts coming your way.
5. You might say, but Fehzor, we tried that with shard bombs! in which case I will graveyard and repost the OP, as detailed below. But if I were to reply to that, I would say that it worked just fine for the antigua changes, as well as most other changes. You guys don't have to read the angry petitions or acknowledge them if you don't want to.

Since I don't take well to criticism, the forum game is to post your favorite colour! Mine is pink. If you post anything else, I'll copy/paste the OP again as a new thread in suggestions, and graveyard the old one. Because that's apparently how you guys that reply to these threads like to be treated.
